Buff Trundle pls

Dear Riot,

Can you please buff Trundle or nerf Graves? Either one works.

The base damage nerf to Rabid Bite (along with the duration decrease) really screws over everything that he does. He's always been prone to kiting, but now he gets kited and dies without doing any damage at all. He's basically only a pillar bot now, as he doesn't even win matchups against tanks anymore, let alone juggernauts like Darius, Garen, and Aatrox.

Can you please revert some of his nerfs so he can be a fun champion to play again? Because right now he's not fun at all to play, especially when he's behind (which will happen 90% of the time since he is now weak early, and his mid game is reliant on how his early went).

Concerning Graves, I don't think he's had a single bad matchup in the jungle for what seems like years now. What has to occur for this champion to receive some real nerfs? Trundle saw pro-play for maybe 4 months tops before he was gutted, so why does Graves just get to do whatever he wants all the time? Strong early, mid and late, zero downsides. Solo carries harder than any other jungler in the game, far more than Trundle ever has.

I'm not asking for Trundle to be a top shelf pick again or whatever, but if you could facilitate making him fun to play again it would be great. This post will doubtless be drowned out by posts concerning more popular champions, but since only a very small number of people regularly play Trundle I figured I should post about it.

He was... ever fun to play?Trundle

on a serious note, I really don't understand what Riot's concept of balance is. Things on this ship just slide, and slide, until they are allowed to go overboard, and the other side becomes the lean and falls off.

they can't really justify at any point in time how any one champ is allowed to be so out of line and not the others in terms of power, yet we see so few nerfs. and when we do, it's -5 ms. Remarkably, they are making fun of us to our faces and then giving us missions to watch worlds to trick the stats on viewership.

AmumuIvernRammusSejuani have been in the gutter. So we need to buff Kha'zix ratios.

Graves feels reasonable now. Trundle is really weak though. He's basically Sejuani tier.

Trundle was fun to play when it was possible to be tanky. Nowadays he just flops.

Even if you have a Soraka to synergize with his W, have a pure tank to use your ult on, and have a full tank build(With a Gauntlet or Trinity force) you still just flop. Trundle is in a pretty unplayable state.

I don't like the part where Trundle was dealing tons of DPS damage by building nothing but HP items. The base damage nerf on his Q was worth it.
